People seem obsessed with putting labels on books and such in this manufactured evolution debate. How about we put this label on our biology science class doors:
"This is a biology science class. Here we deal with facts, hypothesis, theories and tests that help us understand the natural world. Genetics is central to what we do in this class. Because humans are genetically related to other species on this planet what we do here allows us to prevent and cure diseases. As scientists and people our genetic relationship to other species does not effect our spiritual lives. Science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God. Nor does it seek to. The existence of God is an interesting subject that is covered in the Philosophy class over in another building. Please do not attempt to mix a philosophy debate about the existence of God into the critical scientific study and research done in this classroom. To do would effect the contribution of billions to the economy that come from biologic science and our position as a world leader in medicine."
Whaddy'a say?
